Hello,
I am new on this forum and I hope that someone colud help me with writing one sentence. I know how to speak english, but with writing I am not so good and that is the reason why I am here.
So the sentence should go something like this:

Photos from the set of documentary about ... .

I don't know if this is correct, but my intention is to write under several photographies that they are from the set (place where people shoot a movie or film), and that this set is made for a documentary. And the whole documentary is about one person.

Hope I was clear enough and that sombody would help me. Thanks in advance ;) Any advice is welcomed ;)

See above for a couple of amendments, and a suggestion. As you can see, I would say that the caption should read "Photos from the set of a documentary about..."

If there has only ever been one documentary about that person, then you can say "Photos from the set of the documentary about..."
